Re: Generating DA urls on background thread

Hi Ramsey,

Perhaps you need a better "dummy" WOContext. It's a bit of a black art.
Here's what we use:

/**

 * Creates a WOContext using a dummy WORequest.

 * @return the new WOContext

 */

public static WOContext dummyContext() {

WOApplication app = WOApplication.application();

// Try to create a URL with a relative path into the application to mimic a
real request.

// We must create a request with a relative URL, as using an absolute URL
makes the new

// WOContext's URL absolute, and it is then unable to render relative
paths. (Long story short.)

//

// Note: If you configured the adaptor's WebObjectsAlias to something other
than the default,

// make sure to also set your WOAdaptorURL property to match.  Otherwise,
asking the new context

// the path to a direct action or component action URL will give an
incorrect result.

String requestUrl = app.cgiAdaptorURL() + "/" + app.name() + ".woa";

try {

URL url = new URL(requestUrl);

requestUrl = url.getPath(); // Get just the part of the URL that is
relative to the server root.

} catch (MalformedURLException mue) {

// The above should never fail.  As a last resort, using the empty string
will

// look funny in the request, but still allow the context to use a relative
url.

requestUrl = "";

}

return new WOContext(app.createRequest("GET", requestUrl, "HTTP/1.1", null,
null, null));

}


... and then calling the dummy context to create a directAction URL:

protected String taskLinkToDownloadFinishedProductEmailMessage() {

String linkMessage = "";

if (finishedTaskDownloadableFullFileNamePath() != null &&
finishedTaskDownloadableFullFileNamePath().trim().length() > 0) {

WOContext dummyContext = AmagaviUtilities.dummyContext();

NSMutableDictionary<String, Object> queryParameters =
newNSMutableDictionary<String, Object>();

queryParameters.takeValueForKey(finishedTaskDownloadableFullFileNamePath(),
DOWNLOAD_FULL_FILENAME_QUERY_PARAMETER);

String directActionURL = ERXWOContext.directActionUrl(dummyContext,
"downloadTaskResults", queryParameters, true /*secure*/, false
/*includeSessionID*/);

linkMessage += "Download your file now: <a href=\"" + directActionURL
+ "\">click
here to download</a><br /><br />";

linkMessage += "Note: file will be deleted within 7 days<br /><br />";

} else {

linkMessage += "No file download available " + "<br /><br />";

}

return linkMessage;

}
